This is the message I just sent a few minutes ago but I would like to
add that I'm only using these drives to store media files. This is
not meant to be a bootable disk. The NAS supports SMB and AFP out of
the box. There is a firmware hack available to get it to do NFS, but
I have no idea if that will help me. I don't think any of my files
are more than 4gig or even 2gig. I don't know any other advantage of
NFS.

I have a Buffalo Terrastation network attached RAID storage drive. I
also have a LaCie Big Disk FW800/USB2 RAID external drive. I would
like to clone the contents of my LaCie drive to my new NAS. I can
mount my NAS share in the Finder and copy files to it, but I can't
select the share in Carbon Copy Cloner nor Super Duper. I tried just
copying the files, but I got an error message that the file name is
too long so it stopped copying. The NAS has a web interface that
says that the file format is XFS. I thought it should handle long
file names. So, does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks.
